This photo taken on September 4, 2011 shows villagers looking at the 21-foot (6.4 meter) saltwater crocodile caught in the town of Bunawan, Agusan del Sur province on the southern Philippine island of Mindanao. The giant saltwater crocodile weighing more than a tonne may have eaten a farmer who went missing in July, along with several water buffaloes in the southern town of Bunawan, crocodile hunter Rollie Sumiller said.

Meet Lolong.

The nearly 21-foot crocodile weighs more than a ton and is suspected of killing two people.

News of the world record sparked celebrations in Bunawan, the farming town where the crocodile was captured, according to the Associated Press. However, Mayor Edwin Cox Elorde said the townspeople are also concerned there might be more giant crocodiles lurking in the marshlands.

"We’re really proud because it proves the rich biodiversity of our place but at the same time, there are fears that Lolong may not be alone," he told the AP.
